Things to Remember
- Keep items separate (i.e. do not put batteries and fluorescent lightbulbs in the same container)
- Seel containers securely (screw tops, paint lids, etc)
- Don’t put items in tied plastic bags; instead transport in open-topped boxes
- Bring the materials in the trunk of your car to be safe
- Please make sure all propane tanks have the valves closed and that there is plenty of ventilation in your vehicle
- We recommend that you wear gloves when handling products
- Containers carrying liquids will not be returned to residents because liquids are not poured off on site
